Exploring Cultural Readiness and Leadership in Higher Education’s AI Era

Orlando, FL — (October 2025) — InforMaven AI Update, a leading podcast for higher-education professionals exploring the practical use of Generative AI, features Dr. Claire Brady, President of Glass Half Full Consulting, as the guest on its October episode.

Hosted by JD Mosley-Madgett, InforMaven AI Update dives into the real-world opportunities and challenges of AI in higher education, focusing on implementation, ethics, and innovation. Throughout October, the episode featuring Dr. Brady is being shared in a series of shorter clips across InforMaven’s LinkedIn, YouTube, and podcast platforms.

In her conversation, Dr. Brady explains that the most significant barriers to AI adoption in higher education are cultural, not technical. She challenges leaders to move beyond hesitation and “innovation gridlock” by:

Aligning AI efforts across departments
Valuing diverse expertise and cross-functional collaboration
Sharing information transparently rather than hoarding it
Treating AI as a cultural and leadership shift, not a software rollout

“We can’t wait for perfect clarity before moving forward,” Dr. Brady notes. “AI should serve our people, not the other way around.”

The InforMaven AI Update podcast highlights actionable perspectives on AI literacy, fluency, and implementation. Each month features an in-depth conversation with an expert, followed by weekly micro-episodes that bring key takeaways to campus leaders.

The October episode featuring Dr. Brady is available now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and YouTube, with highlights posted weekly on the InforMaven LinkedIn page.
